Not to stir your pot any more...lol
But I'm sure you saw trump sign what was essentially a war on drug dealers and cartels the other day. But the VERY next day Donnie pardons (DPR) a black web drug dealer serving TWO life sentences and Forty years...
Google him..
Stay safe, stay healthy, friends. In particular, stay alert for reports of H5N1 culls going on in avian flocks. Since communication from our health related gov’t entities is now limited, we’re on our own for information. (Also, egg prices going up as a result.)
Thank you so much. I have been following you since ‘day one’ and can’t stress the calming effect a sane voice has had on me. So glad you made the move here as I dumped Twitler except to follow you. Again, thank you.
I'm sorry you had a rough week. I appreciate your information as I've had to back off from the news because it's affecting my health. Thank you for your work. Hope you have a great weekend.
I scrolled down far. I’ll try it again but it was post after post with questions answers and people posting that they weren’t able to see any answers from Angry.
Once I realized I was being directed to the Replies column rather than the replies after clicking on the post, I found them. Thanks so much for the help. 💙🦋
I found his posted replies to questions under the Replies column of his profile page. Click on that rather than reading to replies that appear under his post.
I did, it seems like I had to go through everyone's replies to all questions, not just the ones Angry answered. But tbh it was kind of interesting! Thanks for the help!
Thanks for giving us time this week, even though it was a doozy. Any time we get with you is the most informative most of us receive. Hope you find time to relax this weekend. Cheers! 🥃
So go to his profile page. Then click replies at the top. You'll see his "OK, everybody" post. Click that and you'll see all questions and his replies.
Thanks- BTW
Never doubted it-
“The Senate on Friday night voted to confirm Pete Hegseth as defense secretary after Vice President JD Vance stepped in to cast the tiebreaking vote. Hegseth’s nomination had been hampered by allegations of misconduct.”
Has your work group experienced any repercussions yet from Trump 2.0?
With the Trump administration already silencing communications from CDC, HHS and our (taxpayer-funded) health agencies, any chance we’ll see a return of the “Alt” community?
Trumps cabinet will be approved, regardless of qualifications because “the Pres. should get the team he desires”. Hitler destroyed the Constitution in 53 days. The last cabinet candidate refused was under Eisenhower. The 4th Reich is here. Project 2025 is underway. What’s the point?
Would love to see @robbiekaplan.bsky.social who represents E Jean Carroll take Cassidy on as a client and sue those aholes in a civil case. No settlement until after discovery when those messages are obtained.
IMHO, seeing as the sexual deviants are Republicans holding office, they will not hold each other accountable and it will be left to the left once again.
Well hey, if they are going to treat abortion and perhaps contraception as murder, any man having sex with a woman he isn’t in a position to raise a child with should be charged with child endangerment, at the very least.
The MAGAts do not care! They are slogan based morons with the inability to face reality that doesn’t personally affect them. Their cult follows the supreme idiot. They lack an important human quality to exist in society, EMPATHY. However their day will come when they need empathy.
I am working on having no empathy for them. There are plenty of people who will need our empathy and help but if they did this to us, they may have to look elsewhere unless they come to their senses.
And as you develop as a human, you may not "click" with the artificial societal expectation of your gender, for whatever Fvcking reason, and it's perfectly fine to do whatever you want with your dress, your partner, your name, your birth certificate, etc.
They should care that by decree of the president (you are the gender that you were at conception as defined by the ability to make sperm or egg) they are all legally female 😄😄😄😄😄😄😄
I would agree, except we have "The Supremes, The Billionaires, CEOs, Federalist Society, Heritage Foundation, MSM added to the congressional coco-nuts" as MAGA bigwigs. Then add the poorly schooled and brain-dead yahoos. Odd bedfellows led by Circus MAGA Master: DJT.
I'm confused on the "strings" attached to federal aid to California. No strings attached to aid for NC. Can congress do this (I know... crazy times... but is there anything that can stop this)? If not, can CA withhold funds paid to Federal Government? Thanks.
Doubtful given how many people are already losing their jobs because of his decisions. If he goes through with large tariffs in Feb, as he said, the retaliatory tariffs will contract the economy significantly while ice raids will increase prices. Hello stagflation.
You’re a bigger person than I am. A part of me wants the economy to crater and the MAGA cult be hurt exclusively. The other part of me wants as little damage done as possible for all. Being a decent and caring person is hard.
We won't know, regardless of what happens. Remember he has control of ALL communications by ALL agencies. We have already had the last real economic reports we will ever see.
The economy will not save us because the next crisis (international, domestic, natural disaster) will surely be so badly mismanaged it will tank whatever good we have left.
Economics is not my strong suit, but based on everything that I have read, the underpinnings of this economy is not quite as solid as Obama's, probably bc Obama had 8 years to get things back on track.
I think it will. People will be experiencing unprecedented hardship. If I'm right about what's coming, none of us have lived through it before. I hope I'm wrong.
I’m not rooting for a recession, but I think the faster he blows up the economy and we all see real effects on our own households and his base is suffering they will start to turn in him. The sooner the better so he doesn’t completely screw our future.
Can’t really hide the truth when fruits and veggies are literally not available in the grocery stores! I’m thinking next winter we will be in a world of hurt!
How do you tolerate, reconcile with, or forgive 47 voters? In 2016, they didn't know better. By 2024, he was an adjudicated rapist, convicted felon with dozens of additional charges pending. I can't see how we bridge the gap.
I assume the #AfghanAdjustmentAct is dead in the water. What can be done now to not abandon our allies & normalize the status of those who made it here? Was there any reason for the last 3 years of obstruction on this aside from racism?
If Trump actually does get rid of FEMA, what entity is going to pay for, say, hurricane damages in states along the Gulf Coast, when many of them are quite incapable of doing so themselves?
First of all, Angry, I hope you are ok in the midst of the current administration’s “purge” of civil servants. Please be safe. Could you explain why Trump is gutting our public health care system and plans to remove health insurance from millions of Americans? Is he trying to sicken the population?
I keep thinking of what you keep saying, watch what he does and not what he says. He seems to be doing what he’s saying. How long does this last? Also if, Vance, ever got into the presidency, do you think he would be as horrible as he seems or was it an act to get the VP slot and move up?
Exactly. He’s sucking up to trump and throwing red meat to maga. They can start planning for the next election, while the administration takes away all their jobs, rights, etc
I don’t think he’ll last this term. He’s fat, old and sedentary. Look at the crap he eats. And the rage he lives with 24/7. It’s ludicrous to expect him live beyond his term.
Plus JD will probably toss him out a window at his first opportunity 🤷♀️
Good evening, Angry. Reportedly, folks at State were shocked by Rubio’s suspension of most foreign aid. Did you expect that? What are allies saying about it? Thanks.
How do we prevent a rehash of Nazi Germany, Russian Oligarchy? Trump et al rely on ppl who rely on norms and institutional guardrails…it seems obvious that those don’t work against ppl who ignore norms and guardrails…
Mitch finally does one thing right in his entire political career. Too little too late, he's still to blame for pretty much everything that's happening today.
Too bad we are in this mess because McConnell couldn't do what he needed to do (twice the opportunity) confirming tDump's impeachment. He's the one I think needs to own his part of our current situation.
McConnell could have put an end to this garbage four years ago, including a penalty that would have prohibited Trump from ever holding public office again.
Trump is McConnell's legacy.
We wouldn't be HAVING this vote if it weren't for McConnell. This is just a "show" vote so that if tRump crashes and burns, there will remain a smidgen of the R party. So disappointed that someone hasn't pointed that out.
Mitch McConnell betrayed America. He inflicted harm on our judiciary & enabled Trump's reelection. Voting against a clearly unqualified nominee is way too little too late. The Republican senators who voted to confirm Hegsmith betrayed our country, our military, & all Americans. The GOP is appalling.
Just thinking that perhaps Hegseth assured senators that he would think independently? I think that is the only way a few of them agreed to confirm. Either way we need more Republican kahunas.
1, he only got the job because he told Trump "Hells ya I will shoot American citizens" and 2, since he won, it's a shoe in they all will win. There is no bar.
I can't find it any longer to credit the genius who posted, "McConnell voting against Hegseth is like Hannibal Lecter becoming a vegan on his death bed."
McConnell said he was thinking differently abt matters of life & death since his SIL backed her car into a pond and drowned last yr (or maybe it was 2023). True story.
Do you think he’ll last. I think he’ll screw up, get drunk or sleep with an aide or both and he will be fired. I mean counting on an alcoholic keeping his promise not to drink because you know alcoholics keep their promises when it comes to drinking booze. 🤣😂
When they go against orange Julius, their lives are threatened. That’s what happens! And now that Trump’s January 6 minions are freed, why wouldn’t they come after Congress. They did it before.
Only because he knew that his vote would put the final vote as a tie and Vance would then break the tie. It was a checkerboard chickenshit move on his part.
McConnell can vote NO now, because he's assured that his decades of damage has been secured. He's just trying to do damage control on his tarnished legacy before he checks out.
They do have but during the last trump administration his goons watched social media for issues. I guarantee they’re doing it already. Mueller She Wrote was a federal employee who started her podcast I think it was that pissed trump off so he had her fired. Not sure of all details though.
i have a friend who is a federal employee. she said they were told to not say anything on social media about 'anything'. this was before this fake election.
Before anyone insists that it's because he wears lifts, I just want to point out that other men wear lifts too and, how many women waltz around in 2"+ heels all the time?
Trump got new shoes/boots. Another post mentioned them along with a closeup photo. They appear to be "lifts". That's why they lean forward. The heels are taller.
he's always had the shoes with lifts. when he was (supposedly) shot in butler pa, one of the shoes was thrown off in the dirt. the lifts were plainly visible.
because of the kind of dementia he has, that also affects his 'leaning forward' posture.
My father would “run” down the house’s hallway, trying to recover his balance. A few times he ended up hitting his head. It’s only a matter of time before we see The Great Leader do the same.
wow, thank you, i didn't know Dump had removed his lifts because he couldn't judge depth. i thought he was wearing shoes that were 'lifted'. i saw a pic of his shoe laying on the ground when he was supposedly clipped in the ear in Butler..the shoe itself looked 'lifted'(platform shoes).
did you see felon 47's wife kiss gavin newsom despite the big visor on her cap (as felon 47 barreled ahead as always, not knowing what was going on behind his back?)😂 😂 😂
when i first saw melania kissing gavin i thought she was kissing justin trudeau..that old picture that's been around forever, then i realized this is *now*...the only way she gets affection. 😒
I don’t feel sorry for her at all. I remember long ago watching the apprentice, and she was trying to hawk her skincare line, and she was rude & condescending to the contestants,she supported the stupid birther rumor,her “I really don’t care”etc…
Mata Hari is suddenly around the orange stain now that he's returned to the WH. She must of have gotten the news that we are paying for her hair stylist again.
Newsom was prepared for the pull you in handshake & he won. Who would be stronger anyway? Old 78 yr old man or younger more fit man? Melania couldn't wait to kiss Newson, she had her hat back enough that he could. Later it was over her face.
It’s always interesting to hear critiques of California from people in states that receive more federal funding than they pay in taxes. You’re welcome for our contribution to keeping the balance sheet afloat.
Usually a calm and pragmatic individual, I have gone survival whacko! Have crank radio, two way radios with solar charging, etc. I no longer recognize myself!
Fear does goofy things!
None and removing us from WHO and removing the heads of our government medical sectors, we’re on our own with bird flu rampant all over our country. Covid is still rampant. Have many friends sick in bed with bad Covid.
It’s high season for tourist where I live and I’ve noticed a lot of the locals are masking again. There’s nothing political about it here. Sadly,many of them mask to go to work bcs they are already sick.
Well exactly. But when I see it I know to pop the mask on. If the security guard at the bank door is masked or the cashiers when I walk in the grocery store are all masked up..so do I
Last time either- Jared sold our stockpile of medical equipment- ventilators, masks, etc to other countries. Wish I’d saved articles, as unavailable now.
The trump administration's last pandemic response was horrific. If there is another one, expect much worse. And expecting him to blame someone or something else once again.
These damn things have very limited shelf life. Some I've received are already expired when they get here, and the expdate extensions listed on the official Web site are laughable. A few months at best.
They will still work. As long as that control line shows up and you test multiple days into an infection - you should get an accurate result. Especially if it is positive. False positives are rare. False negatives are more common.
What sort of prescription would combat avian flu, for example? If anyone suggests to, for lack of a better words, stockpile medication, what does anybody smart suggest?
Those of you who are stockpiling prescriptions, where are you getting them from? My dr. won't prescribe anything to anyone not diagnosed with an illness; he feels it's not responsible and could leave those who currently need them shorthanded.
Pulling out of the World Health Org insures that the USA will not be well-informed. Trump admin will just tell citizens what they want them to know. There'll be no govt-sponsored vaccines, & only rich will be able to afford Big Pharma price. #EthnicCleansing on an industrial scale.
I’m not sure if other hospitals are experiencing this, but the children’s hospital I work at is already experiencing daily shortages of IV fluids at the current patient intake levels.
Almost no humans have died from bird flu in the U.S. If it mutates a certain way, though, it could become more severe and possibly more fatal in humans.
I am already stocked up on the most important items: N-95 masks, hand sanitizer, and Clorox wipes (which also kill the NOVO virus unlike alcohol-based hand sanitizer).
Europe did the lock down so much better. I moved to Italy in 2021 IN PART because SCOTUS will be conservative for a generation and a half, Biden was a single term president, the US is too racist and misogynist to elect Harris, and Trump would take office again.
I hate that I was right.
Of those two, France would be your best bet. They had a National Assembly election last summer, which was almost won by the far right National Rally, but the more liberal and left wing parties banded together to ensure they couldn't win on the second round of voting.
Also, the president of Italy (another check on PMs) is President Sergio Mattarella - he's liberal Democratic Party & the longest-serving president since The Republic of Italy was formed in 1946 (not a typo).
His interesting political history here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sergio_Mattarella
Unlike the US where there's no one the POTUS answers to, each EU member nation must comply with EU or be sanctioned / punished monetarily, e. g. There Are #Checks&Balances

Meloni is in a bit of domestic trouble regarding the economy under her leadership. Including spending a billion euro on a plan to house migrants in Albania.
France is under far right pressure, with a weakened Macron administration.
Toss of the die at the moment. IMHO.
Whatever you do

I was at a funeral at a catholic church in Northern Michigan that had uv air cleaners running. An investment but silent and deadly to all manner of virus
Honestly, if a severe form of this virus transmit btw humans, church activities will halt bc H5N1 will make many very sick quickly. Many will die. W/o vaccines isolation & PPE are the only effective preventatives. PPE includes covering eyes, mouth, nose, hands, & clothing. It may be all we have.
I know my family thinks I’m crazy but I just bought N95’s adult and kid sizes to have on hand. I have sanitizers too. I’d rather it not be needed and sit on the shelf then need and not be able to get.
Bird flu H5N1, mystery virus over in Ghana I think, rsv not deadly, but serious for elders etc. And 1,451 days to go...so
Yes, if you have responsibility to care for others when the chips are down, it's time to get prepared for an all chips down situation.
My bestie (thx luv!!) told me of hypochlorous acid generators. Basically turns salt and water into the hydrochlorous acid cleaner that actually kills H5N1 and norovirus. I ordered one and some glass spray bottles to spray on shoes and surfaces. That and masks will help tremendously.
Yes, surface cleaning with a bleach solution or equivalent is going to be essential on this virus from what I’ve read. It reminds me of being a little girl and always wearing white gloves in public places. The routes of transmission are more numerous than COVID & it lives longer on hard surfaces.
“noun: fomite
objects or materials which are likely to carry infection, such as clothes, utensils, and furniture.”
Aerosolized cough, sneeze or other infectious material expelled into the air accumulate on surfaces as they disperse in the air like morning fog. The bits on surfaces are fomites.
Scientists recognize these fomites as a notable means of viral transmission: hand to surface then hand to mouth, nose or eye at some point while the virus is still active. My mom didn’t know about fomite science but the same logic. If aerosol transmission begins, mask up. It’s about all we can do.
In my house its already done
Plus, NO way in hell I will believe this admin on ANY Health-related issue. I am trying to find an international reliable source
I recommend that you not tell anyone that you are trans. Move to a different state where no one knows you. You are likely in danger. It’s not the time to assert your rights. Take care.
I'm in the safest state I can be in already. Leaving my home, my family, my supportive community, and my entire social network to live an isolated existence elsewhere pretending to be something I'm not* does not appeal.
Id still look into the organization. No doubt they arent just stopping at striking. They might hold rallys...meet ups with other resistant groups....need volunteers for setting up said event.
Why can't the Dems change their strategy? If they don't, does the 2026 election really matter? Will maga just push their way thru? Similar to 1933 Germany? Or are we already there?
Should the triglycerides win, Will things return to some semblance of normality? Vance can’t possibly hold the same sway, can he? Or is it just who they are happy to be now?
I realize in the wake of all the horrors of this week this doesn’t matter a flying fig. Thst said after this Hegseth vote, I am in a mood to be petty. So, my question, does donald really fart all the time and does he really wea a diaper?
Watch Noel Casler who worked for The Apprentice. Yes and his “nanny” who he made head of intelligence had to change the diaper periodically. Ivanka would make fun of him & the smell.
holy cow, felon 47 has been in office only 5 days!!?? actually i think it feels longer (other than the obvious stuff), because he's never gone away. media publishes him because he gets the clicks, so it has always been trump all the time. 😳 🙄 😳
just as i read your post i thought about 'dr' ronny jackson and his drug and alcohol problems...he was removed for consideration of VA head for instance, but he's still in Dump's circle..
Well I sure hope some one is working on getting the proof. Knowing how much they suck at professionalism and cutting corners I bet anonymous could easily hack into their systems and release the evidence.
There are groups organizing against this? We’re a teachers union in FL fighting for our damn lives AND trying to keep our people from having to take orders from ICE…it’s happening on a small scale here, are we many small or merging into larger groups? (looking for the lifeline, hard day today)
My daughter is an elementary school teacher in Central FL. They have recently lost their union, apparently they didn’t have the percentage to continue with their union. Total bullshit if you ask me.
FYI: the talk here in Canada is that that is one of the first things we will retaliate against if the US imposes trade tariffs in February. Hope for all of us that Trump doesn’t start a trade war!
Hang in there. Only 207 more weeks to go 😅.
Soon the ridicule from the dems will start back up. And it will be delicious watching the orange, thin skinned, bag of cholesterol react. Not to memtion the coming and eventual split with leon
He came in with his installed SCOTUS's decision that he can't be prosecuted for any crime he commits in an official capacity. And that was planned in advance.
Yep, they came with a plan, years in the making — project 2025. This is where the Dems fail. They can't agree on a winning strategy and get it through to the people
That was a short term defensive strategy. Project 2025 was in the works for years. The Dems do not seem to have a coherent long term plan to motivate voters
The 90 million registered voters who sat out the election have a lot to answer for if they are unhappy when they can’t afford eggs, insulin, can’t access birth control, lose needed school resources and have to choose between medicine and mortgage payments.
They did. But so stones the media and the pundits and the poll takers will say that's not what people wanted to hear and they wanted inflation to be under control and talk about it more. This Monday morning quarterbacking is going to stay here
Proof that ya can’t fix stupid. I told a MAGAt about project 2025, he told me to prove it. I sent him a link to it and suggested he read it for himself... if he could read. He refused to believe anything I sent him. Oh, and the AP news is a leftist propaganda outlet. Like I said, can’t fix stupid.
Magas voted as if they were rooting for their fav football team. Not a brain in their heads, no discernment, and now their guy trump is like a butcher carving up our gov & country. Maga will be hurt along with the rest of us; I will laugh at maga tears when once more, dems win & go to work to fix it
Can’t agree in a winning strategy. Huh. Soooo just admit white ppl OVERWHELMINGLY voted for Trump. If white ppl can’t understand what that admin could do- AFTER THEY LIVED THROUGH IT? Nobody can help them. If they are this stupid then let them feel what they brought all of us. They deserve it.
If this isn’t a winning strategy I don’t know what is. Lower drug costs with caps, down payment on a house, debt relief, lower HC. WOMENS REPRO RIGHTS. VOTERS RIGHTS. GUN REGS. The other side is a fascist. Jfc.
we're better prepared as well though, unlike last time we're not wasting our time trying to figure Dunce out, instead we're launching lawsuits to put a stop to his EOs and some are already succeeding.
I dunno about that, some of those EOs looked like they were written by AI and many are already getting challenged, so far not impressed by all the P25 hype.
What the eff do I tell my kids?! They are scared about all of this kabuki/performative Trump "shock and awe". Afraid their friends might be deported, their LGBTQ friends will be targets...what do I say??
I sincerely appreciate the responses, but my kids are 13 and 16. Any thoughts for that age group? (7th and junior year) that won't scare them out of their gourds?
I’ve told my teenagers the truth. What is happening and what it can mean. Also, don’t trust anyone outside our immediate family unless they are 100% sure they are safe, don’t believe everything they hear unless it’s a trusted source, and that it is ok to be scared because right now it is very scary
I think Hegseth and trump are alike in a lot of ways: alleged or liable for sexual abuse, cheated on wives, inappropriate public behavior, mismanaged funds (to the point of bankruptcies for trump), and lie a lot. What do you think?
tRump wants damaged people that he has dirt on in every top job. He wants to control them with the dirt he has. He purposely put unqualified people into the top jobs to destroy everything. But then what? That's what the R's cant answer. Who is next after this very old guy? No plan!!
Do you think there is any merit to the “blue delulu” crowd (self-titled, apparently) who is still holding out hope that justice is coming for trump and Co.?
Is it constitutional for a President to issue an executive order that blocks existing funds already appropriated by Congress???
Seems like he’s blocking an Article 1 function. Will it be challenged on these grounds?
Not helpful. We cant sit here trembling. There will be elections again because Congress will push back. We have to expect it. By the time mid terms come around people will be desperate for any relief.
The richest, most powerful people in the world are not going to just give up the power because the calendar says it's that time. They tried to keep the power last time. Now they have authority from SCOTUS. Why would you think there will be elections again?
yeah, but Congress depends on elections to keep their jobs. If we can get to mid terms, they will lose. Really, Id prefer to move ahead as if we are preparing for elections until he makes a move. There is nothing to do now anyway. We are stuck because people stayed home. 1/2
But the doom and gloom of just saying that there will be no more elections sort of means (to me) that people are giving up. The majority of people don't want this and I have trouble believing that tRump can even make it for 4 years. 2/2
And as for congress depending on votes to keep their jobs, those jobs will all be appointed and approved by the regime. That's the point of canceling elections, so that democrats or any opposition does not have a voice.
The majority of people (that voted) actually do want this. But it no longer even matters what the people want. He only needed them to vote one time, right? So, again, my question was, besides norms and hope, why would there be elections? And you can't say "because there always has been."
I hope you're right, but I don't think so... I've seen no evidence at all that Republicans aren't just falling in line behind him. Even Senate dems. Nobody is giving up, but to talk about midterms is not taking the current threat seriously. "Oh well, we'll get them in 2026 (or 28)" is very naive.
I agree with you. I meant how... how would that happen? We all want there to be elections. But how? Civil war? My point is they aren't just going to let themselves be voted out. There are no norms or values anymore. Or elections, or consequences. My question was about what gives him hope of that.
Look, Im not really sure but Id prefer to come from a point of view that we can fix this. Otherwise there is no reason to fight. I am aware that he could try to cancel elections and all sorts of things, but he does not have the political capital that he once had. Now that he is screwing MAGA over 1/
what makes you believe this was one? “we have the votes” and admitting during the victory rally that he admitted it all? video that was shared missing from the interwebs for no reason.
I suspected the Reagan-Carter election was tampered with; the hostages being released on INAUGURATION DAY was too sus… 40 years later, they find out it was rigged to make Carter lose.
I’m suspicious again…
When Trump talks about FEMA being handled at the local level, does he mean with zero $$?
Wonder if the whole budget (whatever is left after tax cuts will be block grants to states...?)
I'm seeing some reluctance to engage in online resistance, as expressed by people . . . online. But unironically. Some seem to be taking it offline, into local activism and community organizing. Have you seen this, and does it seem to be a growing phenomenon? I kinda like it.
I meant that they’re next in the line of succession. You’re right about the personality aspect, but Vance is much more dangerous than Trump in some ways.
I agree. But I hope and suspect that he would be easier to defeat in an election. But then, that may just be the result of my desperate longing for hope!
I am not watching MSM as much. I read @ronfilipkowski.bsky.social daily summary, follow @angrystaffer.bsky.social and a few othersI trust. I turn on MSM once in awhile to see if the 🍊 turd has croaked yet
Vance doesn't have control of Trump's cult and Republicans don't cower in fear of him. If he gets the presidency, he won't be able to do or get away with nearly as much as Trump could.
*Except in Ohio. Sad that the state my great grandfather & his 7 brothers fought for in the Civil War for the Union Army has turned into such a crap hole, but then again, so has Indiana. Apparently paternal grandma's family had sense, & ended up in Michigan.🙄
Nah--they'd get Dr. Ronny to perform the PM. He'd report that the Kleptocrat was in perfect health, the body of a 40 year old. But an excessive amount of fluoride, or something unexpected--setting off several massive pogroma.
Except there is now a long line of just as evil & corrupt sycophants behind him who will carry out Project 2025. This country is screwed thanks to uninformed ignorant racists who refused to put country over party & worse the ones who didn’t show up to vote in the most important election
Vance isn't any better -- just much younger, and much more ideologically focused.
And it's assholes and monsters all the way down. I mean, I wish the very worst on Grampa Walnuts, but that whole side of the fence is Stage 4 whackjob now, and they've been given no reasons to change course.
That won't help. This isn't just one man. In fact, if he was gone it would probably be worse because others would actually put competent people in who can do way more damage. It is ALL Republicans and we need to hammer that home.
😂😂. I am not on X nor watching mainstream media. I have not since election night. Can someone here tell me if Ivanka and Jared back in good grace of Dump and White House?
I really wish those former “adults in the room” had taken action during his first term. They just stood around watching and taking notes for their tell-all books.
I love the AOC & Jon Stewart conversation on his "The Weekly Show," AOC said "It's so important that we don't give up. Even if you don't see a way, because ways emerge, moments emerge." She pointed out she wasn't supposed to get elected yet, a way emerged. "America is still full of possibilities."
There's been some (but not enough) coverage of the Foreign Aid "pause" for the State but USAID is also paused. I am a contractor and looks like I will get the official stop work order any minute. I will be OK, but what about IPs & people they serve? How many people will get sick or die due to this?
He wants to control every narrative. He knows the he got caught killing people the last time.
Image and presentation are everything to him.
Truth matters not.
All the MAGAs I know just make up one excuse after another despite policies destroying their lives. One example was a couple who moved across country for a VA job that’s now cancelled. Yet they don’t blame Trump for anything. I don’t know how we get to them as they are so loyal.
Exactly right. Had Democrats showed up for Harris in the number they did for Biden, we'd be celebrating her presidency right now. Democrats stayed home and, thus, let him win.. again.
I live in deep-red Trump country--been voting against Mitch McConnell my entire adult life. It's the fundie evangelical churches telling people who to vote for, 100%. They accept whatever happens to them without question. A local church posted this on election day . . .
It is so frustrating and infuriating. But there is no way to convince people who are willingly ignorant of the facts. Some people are truly incapable of critical thinking. As Americans we've been spoon fed everything and it's too easy to accept what we're told and not look any further for the truth.
imo we reach them by not rubbing the obvious in their faces. They need to walk that bridge of shame themselves....anyone standing at the side laughing is only going to make it harder for them to admit their huge mistake.
We cant tell them anything. They have to experience it over and over until they start to wake up. Unfortunately, it seems to take a lot of loss to make a dent. We owe MAGA nothing. People who didn't vote, voted for tRump. We have to highlight what is happening and find great candidates.
Remember Jim Jones ? Till the end, most of his cultists followed him. Even after their lives became hell in Jonestown. Only a few tried to escape. And they died for him. They ppisonned their kids for him. MAGA won't come back. They're lost. There's no way out from that rabbit hole. And it's sad.
He just wants control, without the bother of annexation. He wants 🇨🇦 obedient - and it looks to me as if every potential successor to Trudeau would be just that. (Liberals Carney or Freeland, or Trump Lite Poilievre)
I think more likely is the billionaires, Putin whoever will do to you what they did to us an dumb AF maga Canadians will vote in the Canadian version of Trumpkkkin, and that old white dude will just turn your country over.
Find something good to support, like the ACLU.
And do you have a local newspaper? A faith community that's sane and compassionate? They will be more important than ever.
Good Luck ❤️
All scientist including me are deeply concerned that we will not get funded anymore, which will in turn initiate a brain drain out ion the USA and a generation of excellent science will be lost to the US.
Every state gets NIH funding and about half get over $1B in economic support. This has the possibility to devastate the economy and jobs in a lot of states.
I came over 20 years ago from Germany to the US because of its excellence in research. This will be destroyed in a few months if this continues. Then the future nobel laureates will go elsewhere, Asia probably. Our lead in research will be handed over just like that.
That's what people voted for.
Yea, pretty sure that’s over. I’m hoping my country benefits🇨🇦…. I mean, what are you guys going to do with the smart ones? Fire them or kill them is what I’m thinking
What can we do about the HHS communication blockade? NIH, CDC & FDA are suffering, we are too for lack of info, also hospitals & state health depts who rely on guidance and data to advise on outbreak prevention. What can normal people do? This WILL hurt patients soon
Call, write, share info. We need Congress to act. We need groups and people to sue. Follow Marc Elias all over and at Democracy Docket. We are going to need to follow the courts and hope that they uphold laws. The only thing these people understand is litigation. Support the litigators!!
My favorite!!! My hero, Gary Morris, music star played Jean Val Jean on in Les Miz Broadway for 6 https://mos.in 1986 I believe. He killed it. I play it every time I drive. He was chosen to sing the lead in the only full cast recording of the play.
Do yourself a favor and give it a listen.
Term limits. We need term limits and that will solve the senior crisis in Congress. It would also limit the ability of special interest groups to corrupt politicians.
Ive worked for civil service for 20 years, 30 years by the time I retire, and I didnt even start until my mid 30s. Proud civil servant. We have many great people who make civil service a career.
I dont think that anyone is talking about career civil servants. Its about elected officials in Congress and on the courts...and perhaps having some age limit for POTUS. That is much different than the civil servants that make the govt run. Thank you for your service to the country!! We need you!
His PR release said it showed the President that Toby would
vote his conscience and break from the Prez when he wanted. Basically it’s an attempt to remain relevant despite no longer being majority leader in the senate.
Hard agree. Mitch could have had him removed, but decided to play party politics instead of fulfill his constitutional obligation to protect the country.
Seems like anywhere but America right now. I just asked the same question while in Spain. The most liberal countries in Europe: The Netherlands and the Scandinavian countries.
I have a small business with half my house equity tied up as collateral for an SBA line of credit (required for me to get the LOC). Tariffs and rising costs are terrifying me, I am so worried my biz will go under due to people scaling back spending & we’ll become homeless in the process.
As a horse lover who truly values our wild horses I am terrified another project 2025 point will come into focus which calls for all wild horses in captivity (which there are a shitload of them because of the totally corrupt BLM) to be “humanely” euthanized 😡
Since I learned there was a secret part of Project 2025, I’ve suspected it focused on an across the board ban on contraception, not just the pill. If that’s the case, we’ll have to start a black market & smuggle in from Canada & Mexico. I wish I was kidding.
FOTUS will reinstate a policy cutting off U.S. global health funding to international organizations that provide legal abortion information, referrals or services,
Why it matters: DonOld will expand the so-called Mexico City policy, which critics refer to as a global gag rule.
Everyone should be stocking up on birth control and morning after pills. The latter has a shelf life of 4 years after date on the box. Pay cash. Hide it somewhere dark, dry, cool.
Of course they will, and there are women out there who are so indoctrinated they will think that's a good idea and shame other women for thinking differently.
Yes. Great fear. Another lie by Trump of course. He will support the national abortion ban.
I also fear that they will present cases where SCOTUS will reverse Brown and refer segregation to the states calling “separate but equal” an originalist and fair reading of the Constitution.
They are already working at that with their gender at birth BS. They are setting up fetal personhood. For now, this is more pervelent at the state level.
To all those living in a state that’s codified abortion rights it doesn’t seem to mean jack shit. I was wondering this because I live in California thinking oh yay! But the Supremacy Clause would mean fed overrules state. I’m sorry we’re not taught about the constitution in more detail
They are
It’s in project 2025. No abortion. They are also going to end no-fault divorce, which means more women get stuck in marriages because they don’t have the means to hire a lawyer and fight for her divorce.
It’s all about punishing women and putting us in our place
The 🍊 💩 signed over 155 executive orders. The majority of them come straight out of Project 2025. His platform was always Project 2025. He lied to his supporters. I wonder how they feel about that. They probably are okay with it. Wait until it affects them. Then we'll hear them whining.
Not just a nationwide ban on all types of abortion but also:
Penalties on those who aid in abortions
Gay Marriage
Contraception of all kinds
No fault divorce
Dark times ahead folks.
They already are. While everyone was focused on inauguration, Matt Kacsmaryk quietly let a lawsuit filed by 3 states to block mifepristone move forward.
Contraception was always the end game. Abortion was a diversion from focus on the actual goal, now the vocally stated goal, produce more white nationalist babies to offset changing demographics. Without contraception, fetal personhood enacted, DEI protection gone, you see where this is going right?
They absolutely will. If they can overturn Griswold v Connecticut which recognized a right to privacy, they will eliminate abortion, contraception and marriage equality, leaving women as chattels to men which is their white Christian nationalism agenda.
I was reading today that a petition has started in Cali to put it on the 2028 ballot. If you guys secede before then, I hope you take FL refugees as volunteers! Too old to fight if there's a war, but I have logistics experience
The fact that they’ve pulled medical research, makes me concerned that they could also pull life saving medications. We know that the pharmaceutical industry has had a hold forever, but unless they pay up, he could threaten.
In a Normal 🌎 That would be absolutely, HUGE,
Today, That Unfortunately, seems miniscule, compared to what,
The 🇺🇸 is in for!
It's ONLY DAY 5❗
I believe tRump Wants,

WHO WILL STOP HIM❓
tRump♥️ Hitler!
Musk gave that Nazi Salute to tRump!

to 🛑 IT❗
We've lost funding for desperately needed female health research. I hope companies step up to partner with labs, scientists & innovators to fill the gaps. Maybe women should refuse to pay taxes? 2nd class citizens shouldn't have to pay 1st class fare
While Amazon is a baddie, they are selling a generic Plan B for $8.30; I would stock up. Even in blue states and/or as a man because you never know if someone you love might need it.
Men should get their vasectomies soon if they are not planning to have more children. They can ban the operation, but they can't do a thing about you if you've had it already.
People having babies that can't afford them have a harder time lifting themselves out of poverty. It keeps people too poor to quit their crap jobs and too scared to complain.
And a Georgia congressman said today that kids that can't afford school lunch should get jobs. Somebody has to pick fruit...
The Reagan appointed Judge telling Trump his birthright citizenship was the most blatantly unconstitutional thing he’s ever seen was a pretty good moment for the judiciary
I'm not sure why you think that. Women could have saved us in 2016 and they could have saved us in 2024. And they didn't, because women are more misogynistic than men ever could be. Too ingrained in the patriarchy. You can't get elected in America without a penis. I'm a woman, I know.
I understand that white women helped reelect Trump. But also, women are the only ones fighting back…E Jean, Fani, AOC, Letitia, Marianne Budde…and yes, even Kamala. There’s been some winning, some losing, but they’re at least speaking truth to power.
Remember that Biden appointed 235 federal judges. These are people chosen for their high qualifications; they're not Trump lickspittles like Aileen Cannon and Matthew Kacsmaryk. That has to count for something. I'd rather fight the battle with smart people than corrupt people in the long run.
Me too. Remember though all trump has to do is wave his magic wand and it will be. Getting scary af. Soon those judges will be removed and Trump replacing with his own
That assumes that Trump will actually obey the judiciary. I don't make that assumption. If he doesn't, the only thing left is impeachment, and he knows that won't happen, and voila, we have a dictatorship.
and Dump pretending it was a dem-appointed judge who said the birthright citizenship thing was unconstitutional, thus getting people riled up for him once again. 😳 🙄 😳
Now let's see what happens when he appeals to his Supreme Court. It will tell us a lot about what to expect as Trump tries to invest himself with imperial power.
I'm nowhere near as confident as some that when "birthright" reaches a 6-3 SCOTUS, Trump fails. Roberts is the only Con who MIGHT vote his conscience. The other 5 don't have one. The "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" excuse is already being widely circulated. https://americanmind.org/salvo/birthright-citizenship-game-on/
EOs - Executive orders can only order other offices/actors WITHIN the Executive Branch to do things. They operate, if at all, by getting other levers of power - like agencies - to move. They don't/can't make individuals, companies, or organizations outside the Executive Branch do anything w/o more.”
How much of Project 2025 will be implemented? How bad is the first six months of this administration going to get? Would love your honest take of the landscape of expectations.
Is anybody actually doing anything to mitigate this shitshow? Or are all the dems bitching about it on social media? It looks like that’s all they’re doing.
Hey Angry, Happy Friday and congrats on surviving week one of too many more (155 if you're counting) of Mango Mussolini!
I'm amazed the Democrats don't have plans to run ads for the next two years in every battleground state targeting decisions approved by the Republican Senate and House.
It's never too early. The Democrats should start laying the foundations now to win in 2026, 2028 and 2030. Keep pointing out how Republican decisions are destroying Republican districts and also affecting Democratic districts and undermining America for the long-term.
Orgs that put up billboards and make films are important now. We need that right away. What of the Lincoln Project and the like? They need to start now. People will get exhausted and need to remember all of this stuff.
This! There are plenty of programs and podcasts who would love to interview the "democratic losers" about how they feel.
Great opportunity to explain what is and will be happening and how it affects Trump voters directly.
Today was the first day I thought that the blue states should break up with the red states. Because it may be the only way that the red-state ppl who don’t get it (some do!) see that their govt (& pres) is NOT serving them well.
I'm down for that! I've been pretending that CA is a different country all week. Helps to manage the stress when you disassociate like you're watching this shit happen to another country. 😂
I’m interested in knowing if CA can take all Blue (rich) states & secede peacefully (!) bc our nation, for whom we’ve pledged allegiance, is no longer holding up Constitution or Rule of Law. We WANT to be citizens of our Constitutional Republic but the guys in charge broke it.
When will cardio vascular disease ease our Constitutional crisis? Also, why do the Dutch get a pass on the whole slavery thing? Prime movers from what I read.
At what point are things over over? Or when do we actually need to consider fleeing the country? I'm sorry if this sounds hopeless, but I don't intend it to be. I just can't fathom how far this country can fall.
He knows he’s leaving soon. He could have rallied his Republican colleagues to vote no against this very dangerous nomination; why didn’t he? Just to come in at the last minute and vote no, knowing full well it wouldn’t help? Putz. He could have gotten rid of Trump during his impeachment.🤬
Find good sources of information and share them. Look on youtube for Miedas Touch, look on substack for The Contrarian. MSNBC in the evening has good information and hosts. Maddow is there every weeknight for the first 100 days. They do cover Trump bc he is Prez but they are telling truth.
I’m worried about the safety of private citizens, with 1500 criminals pardoned and emboldened to do trump’s bidding—you know, state sanctioned general lawlessness. Am I needlessly worrying?
We have 340 million people. 1500 violent criminals won't make that much of a difference until Trump calls on them for another insurrection. But we'll probably die from bird flu first 😜
i saw a video of a son who turned his dad in to the fbi. that son is now hiding in fear. it made me think of all the other wives/kids/families who live in fear of their abusive released family member. like for instance the oath keeper stewart elmer rhodes.
I’m in Texas too and I refuse. I’m not cow-towing to Nazis. It’s not time for low profiles, it’s time for bigger ones. Louder ones. No fear, they do not get to make us sit around and worry. Fuck em, I’m not hiding from these little dorks.
My LGBTQ friend had bumper stickers and 2 semi-trucks sandwiched her between them during a snow storm. It was terrifying. And the bummer was it was so dangerous, she couldn't stop to take a picture of the license plate ahead of her, or the truck itself. She reported it, but insufficient evidence.
All of these incidents are terrifying. I live in a red state and would never put any bumper sticker, even “baby on board” on my car. Real crazies in this country. Emboldened ones now.
I live in Ky. We never post anything political. Our cars or house would be damaged. We took our American Flag down again. We won’t put it up again until Democracy is back with a Democratic President.
trump’s DOJ now has access to all of Jack Smith’s data. Are the names of people who privately testified to DOJ and willing to do it in court now available to him? I haven’t seen this talked about anywhere
That’s bad news, these witnesses must be very frightened. I was hoping DOJ’d make provisions considering the ‘defendant’ is the recipient of the docs but everyone seemed obsessed with keeping up with appearances and business as usual. It’s absolute insanity they’ve been left to fend for themselves.
That article is from April '24 when court cases were active, DT couldn't see witness names THEN. But can he see them NOW since he has all records of both cases? Was anything done to protect these witnesses names since the recipient of the docs is the accused, who doesn't take 'disloyalty' kindly
Who's the "they"? That PBS article is from April 2024 when the case was ongoing. Trump wanted to see witness names back then, DOJ said no and redacted them. I'm talking about now, since he won the election. Does he NOW get to see the names since he has every file that DOJ generated?
Hi, Angry! What are your thoughts on the opening of the Trump sh*tshow? Is this a shell game? Look over here with the 14 Amendment, etc., while severe damage to the government is done elsewhere?
Part of me is angry at Republicans about what is going on...but I can't help but feel all Dems dropped the ball in preventing all this from happening ages ago...the impeachments, the election....am I wrong feeling that way?

Has your work group experienced any repercussions yet from Trump 2.0?
With the Trump administration already silencing communications from CDC, HHS and our (taxpayer-funded) health agencies, any chance we’ll see a return of the “Alt” community?
What are they going to do with all of these people they’re trying to deport who are being refused is other countries too?
Large groups of people who voted for him
Are now expressing outrage
- Who saw that coming??? -
Do you see a real possibility of
An actual revolution?
Stopping funding for the

How does this benefit him?
Pure revenge?
It makes me ill to see his name
Try to limit it
Trump's DOJ leadership is freezing
ALL civil rights cases?
Is it true
A Mike Johnson aide told Reps not to subpoena
Cassidy Hutchinson who testified to J6 committee
Because it would have revealed the
Sexual texts asking her for sexual favors
From GOP Congressmen
How has this just now come to light?

Don't know what direct
Security threats that would pose to Ms Hutchinson
Or if she has personal security
Also, since
So much time has already elapsed
It is nearly two years before
Midterms
Might be more prudent
To wait for most impact
GOP will do nothing
It's voters we count on
She wasn't an elected official/journo
Private citizens who've done nothing wrong
Should not be forced to disclose private texts
It's not part of an investigation
We don't know what danger that might pose
Sensationalism-not a reason
Was just surprised we'd not heard of it
The tariffs and rounding up immigrants should crush the economy faster this time. Recession or Depression bound?
I speak for at least 2400 moms from a community I built and is growing.
That the Angry Family has fun plans this weekend!
What is your thought about the distribution of disaster aid? Does Trump have the sole authority to deny or reduce support to California residence?
Also, do you think that Biden and Harris will fade into the background?
A little bit of needed cheer.
We need to hear from her. She shouldn't have gone silent after the election.
Wouldn't that be a grand time for Xi to make a move on Taiwan!

Not the rantings of a confused old man.
because of the kind of dementia he has, that also affects his 'leaning forward' posture.
